Chris Packham, Wildlife TV presenter & conservationist

“As someone deeply entrenched in the fight to save our waters from pollution I’m delighted to be part of this important documentary. Jo Bateman’s story is an inspirational one and she’s a fantastic example to the younger generation who will need to battle hard for their waters. This film is a joyful celebration of grassroots activism.”
Jim Murray MBE, actor & activist angler.

“A brilliant, inspiring hopeful film that shows how powerful committed citizens can be.”

"This particular space where people really slow down... and develop an interior life."
Tom Shaw, Martin's brother, reflects on the importance of the river and woodland which has played such a key role in his ongoing story.

Another beautiful clip from "My Heart Ate Light", our documentary collaboration with Martin Shaw, which is really starting to take shape- thanks to the amazing support for our Crowdfunder campaign.

MARTIN SHAW, ROWAN WILLIAMS & MARK RYLANCE IN CONVERSATION

What a remarkable meeting of minds at Southwark Cathedral on Saturday 4th July.

Martin reflects on the event: "We were talking grief, story, longing, improvisation, all sorts. Rylance was sparkling with the honesty of sorrow. Rowan rugged with his decade-long engagement with the many tough spots of religious life... I'd dare to suggest we all became a little more inspired by the last turn of thought, story, poem or song, I know I was."

Thanks to the amazing support for our Crowdfunder campaign, we were able to be present to capture the evening on film. We have 39 days left on our campaign and getting closer to our stretch target; if you can help, read more here and think about joining the journey:
